    One of the biggest things Russia is hoping for is that the west will get ‘bored’ of sending lethal aid to Ukraine. Programs like this are important as it proves the west will remain steadfast in Ukraine’s defense.

      Rather than “bored” I’d say “more concerned with other issues”. To some extent it’s already happening: war is no more a trendy news and inflation/unemployment/recession/climate are gaining importance. Unless you live in my country where… uh… trials involving ministers and public officers take half of the screen time on the news. 🇮🇹🤌🍕 (All forms of “mass distraction”)

          Thank you I feel less alone! Not sure whether it’s a good thing, anyway. In Italy the government is playing the victim and boiling it all down to the plain old argument of “political interferences in judicial councils”. They are working on a judicial reform which looks much a retaliation, though, which is a little worrying.
